false <![CDATA[Totally Killer: A Novel]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1252027428m/6552834.jpg 6552834 2 Conspiracy theory and pop culture collide in 1991 New York in this dazzling and dark debut from Greg Olear. Taylor Schmidt -- twenty-three, single, and jobless -- arrives in the Big Apple desperate for work and hungry for love. Through the Quid Pro Quo Employment Agency she finds the perfect job and the perfect boyfriend...but perfection has its price. With comic flair, Olear seamlessly weaves historical events (the death of Robert Maxwell, the birth of reality television), nineties nostalgia (where have you gone, Shannen Doherty?), and the East Village of yesteryear (RIP, Dojo’s) into a noirish plot as suspenseful as it is far-reaching (Skull & Bones, the CIA, Dick Cheney...and Duran Duran). Part thriller, part satire, part period piece, TOTALLY KILLER is a total page-turner. 6745376 book 1 10 2009 Totally Killer: A Novel total:26|5:10|4:9|3:3|2:2|1:2| 26 101 125 18 3 0 false false Tue Nov 10 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 14 18:56:06 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 14 19:06:27 -0800 2009
